Seanna is a new doula and excited to help her first client: Kaitlyn, 32 weeks pregnant, who reaches out online. Seanna goes to Kaitlyn鈥檚 home, assisting her through labour. But Seanna soon realizes that something doesn鈥檛 add up. Separately, another doula, Kate, also tends to Kaitlyn. Kaitlyn appears pregnant in person. Kate provides typical doula support 鈥� massages to help alleviate discomfort and assisting her in and out of the shower. When Seanna convinces Kaitlyn it鈥檚 time to go to the hospital, Kaitlyn receives an ultrasound. The technician, to Seanna鈥檚 shock, reveals there鈥檚 no pregnancy; the only thing in her uterus is a contraceptive device. Seanna takes to social media to warn other doulas about Kaitlyn鈥檚 scam. When Kate gets the sense that something isn鈥檛 right, she searches social media and finds Seanna鈥檚 post about Kaitlyn鈥檚 fake pregnancy. The two connect and realise they had the same traumatic experience with Kaitlyn, and plan to expose Kaitlyn鈥檚 con to the wider birth worker community.
